F. D. Oliver presented four very nice Marrow Squashes, and one 

 lot of Potatoes ; all "raised on gravel," as we were informed. 

 Patrick O'Rourke, two fine looking Marrow Squashes. 

 F. W. Paine, two superior Water-Meloris. 

 S. M. Park, three Canada Crook-Necks, very good specimens. 

 Mrs. Solomon Parsons, plates of Limn, nameless, and other varie- 

 ties of Beans, and one lot of Martynias, for pickling ; a creditable 

 collection. 



Miss Pierce entered three Marrow Squashes. Had they all equal- 

 led one very large specimen in this lot, your Committee would have • 

 awarded her the first premium, without hesitation. 



Wm. Richardson of Brookfield '-xhibited fourteen boxes and two 

 jars of Honey, made in Gilmore's Patent Bee-House; a most tempt- 

 ing display ! One large box of Honey, weighing very nearly twen- 

 ty five pounds, was made in about a fortnight, during the month, of 

 June. 



Adam Rockwood of Upton, one very fine Crook-Neck Squash, 

 (but not "three in number,") which the Committee unanimously 

 considered the best in the Exhibition. 



Mrs. Daphne Savary of Auburn, a box of superior sliced Dried 

 Apple, upon which much praise was bestowed. 



Stephen Savary, of Auburn, the best specimen of a single Squash 

 Pumpkin. Accompanying this, was the following note : "Raised 

 by Stephen Savary, of Auburn, weight thirty and a quarter pounds. 

 On the vine where this grew, seven others also grew ; the eight 

 pumpkins weighing one hundred and sixty-nine pounds." 



J. P. Southgate, two plates of Civet and Lima Beans — very nice 

 varieties. 



E. S. Stebbins, one excellent Valparaiso Squash. 

 Ira Warren, of West Boylston, a capital lot of Peach Blow Pota- 

 toes ; supposed to have been raised from sprouts. 



D. Washburn, of Leicester, one superior and very long Marrow 

 Squash. 



Ichabod Washburn, one plate Egg Plants, one Green Curled En- 

 dive, and three roots of Seymour's superb White Solid Celery, which - 

 was pronounced the best of this article, on exhibition, 



Leonard White, one Marrow Squash ; decidedly the best single 

 specimen of that article, in the opinion of your Committee. 



It remains for us now, to state in conclusion, the several premiums
